Tropical analysis
In the mathematical discipline of idempotent analysis, tropical analysis is the study of the tropical semiring.Applications
The max tropical semiring can be used appropriately to determine marking times within a given Petri net and a vector filled with marking state at the beginning: means "never before", while 0 is "no additional time".
Tropical cryptography is cryptography based on the tropical semiring.
Tropical geometry is an analog to algebraic geometry, using the tropical semiring.
